Via New England Sports React  |  August 24, 2012
It now rests in the hands of Red Sox upper management where two of their star players will ultimately end up.

Signs Point to Red Sox and Dodgers Working on Major Deal

Via Fenway West  |  August 24, 2012
The fact that the Dodgers claimed Adrian Gonzalez off of trade waivers is not that big of a deal.  The Sox were likely just seeing what teams might be interested before pulling him back.  The fact that the Dodgers also claimed Josh Beckett is big news.  This has to signal a package deal with Gonzo and Beckett heading to LA.  It is very unlikely that the Dodgers would take Beckett...

Quote of the Day

Via Fenway West  |  August 23, 2012
"In Boston, there is always a novel -- in here they never talk about baseball; it's always the same.  That's one of the reasons why I almost never talk to the press here. Very few times they ask me about baseball. But most of the time it's about gossip, rumors, plots, well ... a soap opera.  When they talk to me about baseball, I'm available. But that does...

Ben Cherington, Red Sox Send Clear Message With Blockbuster

Via Boston Sports Media Watch  |  August 25, 2012
When Ben Cherington ascended to the position of GM of the Red Sox, he made sure to call attention to his own deliberate style, noting that he tends to gather as much information as possible and not rush into decisions. I’ll admit, I’ve had my moments where I felt that this quality of my NH homeboy would work against him when it came to being able to pull off big deals. With his...
